Publisher's Synopsis
The second in the laugh-out-loud-funny middle-grade series with a scary twist, Attack of the Zombie Clones: My Zombie Hamster 2 will appeal to readers who like their animal stories mixed with chills! Think Shaun of the Dead for a middle-school crowd. Graduates of My Big Fat Zombie Goldfish and fans of R.L. Stine's Goosebumps Most Wanted series will grab this series right up.
Things have changed in Edenvale. Some zombies, the rehabilitated ones, called Re-Lifers, are now allowed to live there, among the humans. But most other zombies remain unrehabilitated, including one very evil zombie hamster, Matt's former pet, Anti-Snuffles. Matt had thought that getting a hamster for Christmas was bad. Later he learned that having his hamster turn into a zombie was worse. But do you know what's the absolute WORST? When your zombie hamster returns with an army of clones--JUST LIKE HIM--and they're out to get you!
Praise for the first book of the series, My Zombie Hamster :
"Entertaining, journal-style adventure. . . . The deadbeat encounters can be frightening, but humor is at the forefront. . . . Think Shaun of the Dead for a middle-school crowd."-- Publishers Weekly
"McCreely maintains a humorous tone throughout, keeping the story from ever getting too dark. The irreverent narrator, short chapters, and brisk pace will appeal to reluctant readers. . . . the perfect pick for readers who are interested in zombie action, but who are not ready for gore."-- School Library Journal
